Hackney Planning Watch Response to Proposed
Hackney Planning Watch Response to Hackney Council on the proposal for the establishment of a Neighbourhood Forum covering the wards of Springfield, New River, Lordship and Cazenove January 2013 1 Introduction: These are our objections to the submitted proposal to formally designate the four wards: Springfield, New River, Lordship and Cazenove as a ‘Neighbourhood Forum’. As we understand it a group describing itself as the ‘Stamford Hill Neighbourhood Forum’ is seeking designation of four wards in Hackney (Springfield, New River, Lordship and Cazenove) as a ‘Neighbourhood Forum’. Hackney Planning Watch wishes to object in the strongest possible terms to this proposal. Although it will be evident from the four wards listed, the area proposed by the ‘Stamford Hill’ Neighbourhood Forum covers a much wider area than Stamford Hill and does in fact include Stoke Newington, Clissold Park and Upper Clapton. Hackney Planning Watch has a long history as a community organisation in the area. It was established over 15 years ago as a community group composed of local residents concerned about planning issues in Hackney, particularly the unlawful construction and the failure of the Council to deal properly with enforcement. In the last year some of our members have attempted to help build a cross-community alliance in order to develop a genuine consensual approach to the difficult planning issues in the area. These include, as well as enforcement issues, the lack of effective management of open space, protection of the environment, particularly in relation to drainage and tree preservation, and inadequate social infrastructure to meet the needs of the population. -

The approach for the project was about early, ongoing and honest dialogue with those who live, work and visit the area so that they can influence change in their community. The Conversation focused on two streams of work: Moving around Hackney Central and community mapping exercise. Moving around Hackney Central The Council was previously awarded £10m of funding from Transport for London through the Liveable Neighbourhood Scheme to transform Hackney Central by reducing traffic in the area and redesigning its three dangerous junctions – Pembury Circus, Mare Street/Graham Road and Mare Street/Morning Lane – to make them safer for cyclists, pedestrians and public transport users. -

This profile is intended to provide summary information on the health of the local population, to inform residents and support decision making. For more information on the health indicators found in this report, please see Hackney’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment – www.hackney.gov.uk/jsna More general Ward level information can be found on the council’s Shared Evidence Base website.1 There is also more information on Public Health England’s Local Health website,2 and the GLA also produces Ward level information.3 Notes on the data: Data sources: Much of the data come from local health services, including GP data extracted from EMIS via the Clinical Effectiveness Group at Queen Mary University. These data relate to diagnosed or recorded conditions so will not include undetected illness. In April 2015, geographically coded data were unavailable from 2 practices using a different IT system (the Dalston Practice in Hackney Central, and the Abney House Practice in Stoke Newington) – this makes the data for these areas somewhat less reliable, and will be improved in future versions of these profiles. -

Wards for Communities Hackney Conservatives Submission on The
Wards for Communities Hackney Conservatives submission on the new electoral arrangements for London Borough of Hackney September 2012 1 1. The Commission's draft proposal was published in July 2012 and we are supportive of its proposals to retain 57 Councillors for the London Borough of Hackney. A mayoral form of local government does not require less scrutiny, it requires more as power is more centralised than in other forms of government. 2. We oppose the basis of the review as we believe that the data supplied by Hackney Council in predicting future electoral growth is faulty and underestimates the growth in the population in the North East of the Borough. 3. Should a new scheme of wards be required, however, we are broadly supportive of many parts of the Commission's draft proposals but think it can be enhanced to: Aim for greater electoral equality; 4. The range of variances from the average of the Commissions proposals is for 2011 go from -9% for Haggerston to +8% for Stamford Hill East and for 2017 -9% for Haggerston and +9% for Brownswood. We think it to be ill advised to have a scheme that widens over time and pushes ward sizes so close to the tolerance level for triggering another review. We have, therefore, prepared an amendment that would provide for a 2011 range of -8% (New River) to +8% (Victoria) closing in 2017 to -5% (Springfield) and +6% (manor House). Recognise communities; 5. Some of the proposals have retained divisions which this review should have attempted to fix. Putting local community centres such as Chatsworth Road, Well Street and Wilton Way at the middle of wards as the basis for reorganisation would help their nascent renaissance. -
Appendix B Introduction 1. This Appendix Sets out How The
Appendix B Introduction 1. This appendix sets out how the proposed warding scheme addresses the second and third of the Boundary Commission’s three statutory criteria for local government electoral reviews: the need to secure equality of representation; the need to reflect the identities and interests of local communities; and the need to secure effective and convenient local government. 2. Hackney’s diverse mix of people from different backgrounds gives it the third greatest degree of ethnic diversity, and the fifth greatest degree of religious diversity amongst local authorities in England and Wales. Ethnic and religious groups are widely dispersed across the borough. The one exception to this is the Orthodox Jewish/Charedi community in the Stamford Hill area, which is noticeably more concentrated than other groups. 3. Nearly three in five Hackney residents say they feel they belong either fairly or very strongly to their local neighbourhood (57%). This compares well to the London average of 52%. Many people feel they ‘belong’ in many different ways – to a small local area or estate, to one of Hackney’s distinctive sub-localities (source: Hackney Cohesion Review, published July 2010). 4. Our approach has been to seek to strengthen this identification with local areas through their reflection in the proposed warding arrangements, including retaining existing wards where possible, while correcting some known anomalies, for example where a small part of a housing estate falls in a different ward to the majority of the estate. 5. The fundamental problem that we have had to address is the imbalance between the south west of the borough and the north. -
